I think yes is a short answer, James.
The idea of a performance test itself is fantastic.
I mean, so many people, 12% of their wages are going into super.
These people may not understand financial markets, how it's being invested, yet they have to trust that that 12% is being looked after properly.
I mean, it is so crucial that that gets looked after properly.
The idea that there's going to be a performance test, there should be and there will be.
It's just the structure, how exactly funds are measured.
I think there'll be changes, James.
I mean, you know, unless I'm just listening to completely the wrong people and I'm hearing both sides of the debate.
But I think it'd be good for Australia if there is change.
I mean, I think it has contributed to the malaise in Australia in the economy, in the way that capital is being allocated.
I mean, I see it.
It's material.
And like, you know, I talk about equities all the time.
In the infrastructure benchmark, there's lots of airports.
So at the moment, as soon as an airport comes up for sale, someone snaps it up straight away.
But in the growthy sort of infrastructure that we may need, anything around the energy transition or networks or whatever, not so much in the benchmark.
People don't want to put money in it.
Why?
Because of the performance test.
